My name is ”Declan” I pronounce it “DECK-lann,” O’Neill which is the Anglicized form of Gaelic “Deaglán Uí Néill.” I live near “Ann Arbor” Michigan, but was born in Co Tyrone, Northern Ireland. I moved to Gainesville Florida Nov 2005, shortly after I became a legal permanent resident of the US. After a year and a half in Florida, I decided I wanted to live and work in Michigan (I am unsure which is more brutal, the Florida summers or the Michigan winters.) But I am happy here, – I made the right decision.
One of his notable achievements was selling the first corporate MPLS network with managed Internet service in Ireland, for which he won the coveted eircom Account Manager of the year award in 2004. Declan also won the highest grossing sales person for 352 Media group in 2007.
